Delicious king prawns and vegetables stir fry

King Prawns, Tiger prawns, whatever prawns or shrimps, they are all my favourites. I love them in whatever way they are cooked. The usual way I cook them are in hot pot, prawn fritters, prawn noodles, dumplings, salad, curries and a whole long list of others.

Ready cooked king prawns

I bought a packet of ready cooked king prawns the other day & thought I’ll do a quick stir fry with some vegetables. I cooked it with some green beans and small red radishes in Koreanbean paste. Korean bean paste is very special. I really like it when frying meat , seafood or even vegetables. You can even make a very delicious soup base with it. You can get it from Oriental or Korean shops. I bought it from a Chinese supermarket.

Korean bean paste

This dish was very delicious. My daughter and I had a very light, satisfying lunch, just this dish and rice. Here’s my recipe to share:

Heat up some fried garlic oil in the frying pan. Add the beans and fry for a whole. Add the bean paste and continue to fry until fragrant. Then add the sliced radishes and prawns. Add in the water and continue to fry for a while and dish up. It goes very well with rice, noodles or potatoes.

Do you like prawns? How do you like it cooked? What is your favourite prawn dish? Please share, add and comment in the comment box below.

@foodlovee - Thanks for adding. I love the butter prawns too. Yet to try the pepper prawns and chili prawns. Sounds very delicious.

@Kristy - There are 3 types of Korean bean paste…green box, brown box and red box. The brown one is not spicy, green one is slightly spicy but red one is spicy. They are very good. I love them. Try them if you can find them.

@Drick - You always have shrimps on your side. Most of your recipes seem to revolve around shrimps. I’m so jealous you get so much fresh shrimps there.I have to depend on frozen ones here. Guess I have to be thankful….at least I get to eat.

@Brad - Thanks for visiting and for comment. Hope you try out soon…an Asian recipe.

Oh Definitely my cup of tea! I love shrimps sauteed in this way. btw, I never try to put bean paste in the sauteed dish ( always use them for soup). this is a great idea! I still have lots of them in my fridge:)
